Dai Pai nodded upon hearing this.
"It's not a killing machine at all."
"One-Eyed Little Treasure is a champion of justice, you're not allowed to say that!"
The little boy turned around and angrily retorted to Dai Pai in front of him.
"One-eyed what?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Pai looked at Qiu Nian beside him and asked, somewhat bewildered.
"Ha ha..."
Qiu Nian smiled but did not answer Dai Pai's question.
“Brother, this uncle is talking badly about One-Eyed Little Treasure, so he must be a bad person.”
"We absolutely must ignore him."
When the little boy saw Qiu Nian smile, he assumed that Qiu Nian believed Dai Pai's words and quickly reminded him.
"Little friend, I was just trying to be kind..."
Seeing this, Dai Pai wanted to say something more.
"Leave this to us for now."
Qiu Nian looked at Dai Pai beside her and shook her head slightly.
"There's really nothing I can do; I've never been good at dealing with kids."
Upon hearing this, Dai Pai smiled helplessly at Qiu Nian.
"You should continue with your work."
We will ensure his safety!
Paimon looked at Davy Pai in front of him and made a promise.
"Alright, that's the only way..."
"Then I will continue patrolling the area. Please take the child to a safe place. It's still too dangerous here."
After Dai finished speaking, he turned and walked away into the distance.
"Yay! One-Eyed Treasure scared away the bad guys again!"
The little boy jumped for joy as he watched Dai Pai leave.
"What's your name?"
"Where's the family?"
Qiu Nian looked at the happy little boy in front of her and asked.
"Ah, I am Tok!"
Upon hearing this, Tok introduced himself to Qiu and the other two.
"Tok came to Liyue from the distant Winterlands to find his brother."
"But Tok is all alone, and he doesn't know where his brother is..."
Tok scratched the back of his head and explained with a troubled expression.
Chapter 65 Captain
"So they're from the Kingdom of Winter Solstice."
Paimon looked at Tok in front of him, somewhat surprised.
"Oh right, in a situation like this... here you go!"
As if he had thought of something, Tok took out a bag and handed it to Qiu and the other two.
"Hmm? What's that...? It's heavy..."
"This is...!?"
Paimon took the bag from Tok, opened it, and his eyes widened.
"So many Mora!"
Ying was somewhat shocked as she looked at the golden Mora in the bag.
"These are what my brother told me to carry with me."
“My brother said that if we give these to good people, they will treat Tok well.”
Tok looked at the three people in front of him and began to explain.
"Okay, that makes a lot of sense..."
"Is this what allowed them to come to Liyue from the beginning of winter...?"
Paimon found this very reasonable.
"His brother's parenting style is really unique."
Qiu Nian looked at Ying and Paimon beside him and waved his hand as he spoke.
"It is indeed quite unique..."
Ying nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
[Case solved! Tok's brother must be a young master!]
[A sucker, I'm sure of it]
That makes so much sense!
Is this the legendary power of money?
[Won't this spoil your younger brother?]
"Tok, there's a saying in Liyue: 'Don't flaunt your wealth.' It means that you shouldn't show off your valuables in front of others."
"If you encounter someone with ulterior motives, something bad will happen."
Qiu Nian looked at Tok in front of her and began to lecture him.
But Tok is really something.
He actually came all alone from such a faraway place as Winter Solstice.
They even ran into this desolate, remote place.
If anything goes wrong along the way, Tok could be in trouble.
Just then, Qiu Nian turned her head slightly and looked at the distance.
"My brother is a good person."
"Tok will remember what a good person says!"
Upon hearing this, Tok looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and nodded with a smile.
"Then we'll accept it."
After accepting Mora, Ying said to Tok.
Let's return this bag of Mora after we find his brother.
"Then, let's make a deal with Tokla."
After Tok finished speaking, he stretched out a hand to Ying.
Upon hearing this, Ying also grabbed one of Tok's fingers with her own.
"Pinky promise, pinky promise, don't go back on your word, or I'll throw him to the glacier."
"Glaciers are cold, snowfields are frigid, and even a lying tongue will freeze to pieces!"
Looking at the fire in front of him, Tok sang a somewhat frightening nursery rhyme.
"What a cruel nursery rhyme, so characteristic of the Winter Solstice Kingdom..."
"In that case, I guess I'll just have to work as a nanny for a while."
"But where can we find his brother?"
Paimon looked at Qiu Nian and Ying beside him and said without any clue.
"Let's go to the Northern Bank."
"In Liyue, that's probably the only place that's related to the Winterlands."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian made a suggestion.
"What a great idea!"
"Then let's go over there and ask."
Paimon nodded upon hearing this.
"Are you leaving?"
"Tok is finally going to see his brother again!"
Tok was overjoyed to hear that he was going to see his brother.
"Um..."
"You guys go ahead, I have some things to do, I'll come find you later."
Qiu Nian looked at Ying and Paimon beside her and spoke.
"Why are you always like this..."
Paimon looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and said with a disdainful expression.
"Then we'll leave first."
After Ying finished speaking, she led Paimon and Tok toward Liyue Harbor.
After Ying, Paimon, and Tok walked away.
